I bought this trailer with no title and no VIN number. I talk about the process to get one. I used letter punches from Harbor Freight to stamp the number into the trailer tongue.

Thanks for this info. Very good information on this process. BMV should link to your video for instructions. Well Done!

I am in Indiana as well and just got my MVIN today in the mail, It took a week and a half from start to finish. Mine was a boat trailer, it was really fast and easy. Thanks for your video that was what I followed to do mine. I sent a color picture also and put a value on it at 600.00

Thanks. I hear all the time how horrible of a process you have to go through in Indiana to get a title for homemade trailers but your experience seems to show different. Not feeling as crazy with wanting to build my own now.

How do you weigh it can you go to a CAT scale for semis?

I'm not sure. I weighed mine at a scrapyard, but I just guessed the weight when asked originally.

I am currently doing the same, what do I need to do on section 3 of form 12907 where it asks to "check major component parts used to assemble vehicle or watercraft"? It looks like you put something in the "other" category but it's blanked out. Do I need to do anything there?

@raytard96 So on mine I just put no parts used from other trailer and they took it, if you bought yours like I did mine be sure to include the bill of sale. Atleast that's how I had to do mine, I bought mine from Kentucky where they don't have to be registered or anything.

So trailer I’ve got didn’t come with any paper work so I checked it over for any serial numbers and I didn’t find any which I assumed it was homemade. Started replacing some things and I ran into a tongue weight and where is seems to have been made by a dealership maybe. What should I do about it just leave it alone?

I would probably see what it's gonna take to get a title the "right" way, then decide. If you can't find a vin number at all though then I would just try and get a homemade trailer title.

Thanks for the video, I'm lived in Wisconsin before, we didn't need to register or plate. I have 3 trailers to make it legal now I'm in Indiana. Question, I don't see fenders on your trailer, do you know if they are required in Indiana. Thanks again.

This has been quite a tough process for me in Indiana, i started off with doing all this paperwork like you but the worst was having a police officer come. Now where i live its free for vin inspections, but the first time the officer came he said that he himself was not authorized to do the inspection. But a week later i called to have an inspection again and the exact same officer came and did the inspection and signed off on it that time. I then sent in my paperwork but forgot to write rhe word "Homemade" so i hade the paperwork sent back to me and i just had to write that one word. A week later i got my MVIN and i made a vin at Work out of a piece of aluminum and affixed it to the drivers side of the tongue. I also got a paper for the T-1N form for a cop to verify the vin, but yet again i had an officer come to my house today just to verify the vin i made and he said he himself could not do it and that this time i actually have to go to the police station and set up an appointment with the traffic division. This has been a very frustrating few months just to take my fuckin boat out

@@MrFlyboy71 I live in the USA, I'm in Indiana. It was about 2 more weeks after this post I finally got it all figured out. I had to go to the police station, the chief came out and looked for half a second then proceeded to call the officer that came to my house an idiot 💀💀

I just built my trailer, and submitted the documents to the bmv, you said about a week after you sent them in they charged your card, but is it a week after including weekends or was a “business week” after you submitted your paperwork

Super helpful. Did you tell the officer who came out the first time that you bought it or did you really have to play along that it was homemade?

Call your Sherriff's Dept and tell them you need to have a Physical ID done of your trailer and they will schedule a time or have an available officer come out. They will bring the proper form for you to get started with acquiring your VIN 😉
